Instead of gifting ang pows in paper packets (that more often than not just end up in the bin), sew X dignity has come up with these reusable fabric ang pows

The best part is that you can reuse and pass them on to others or keep them for yourself as mini clutches. :P

It comes in multiple fabric designs, each one hand-sewn by youth and women/mothers from the refugee community in Malaysia

All profits are then channelled back to Dignity For Children Foundation, a non-governmental organisation (NGO) that provides community learning centres for underprivileged children.
